This jacket deserves attention, especially at the current promotional price. It's not suitable for very cold weather, but it's comfortable, has large pockets, and a versatile cut. I recommend it to anyone who is undecided – it's really worth buying.
Brandit M65 Classic Jacket - Olive
All-season insulated jacket in Olive, inspired by the iconic M-65 design. It includes a hood concealed in the collar, four pockets (two on the chest and two at the waist), and classic shoulder straps.
This jacket is an accurate rendition of the M65 military style employed by the US Army since the Vietnam War. This renowned design integrates functionality, comfort, and durability, contributing to its global renown. It often features in pop culture, worn by Sylvester Stallone in "Rambo", Robert De Niro in "Taxi Driver", and Bronisław Cieślak in "07 Come In".
sturdy construction, warm liner
The outer layer is sewn from a combination of polyester fibers (80%) and cotton (20%), providing durability and good air circulation. Inside, there is a light polyester lining that increases wearing comfort. The jacket comes with a removable liner filled with synthetic material featuring good thermal insulation properties, ensuring optimal protection against the cold. Buttons placed at the neck and sleeves keep it securely in place. Thanks to the liner, the jacket can be worn all year round.
4 spacious pockets
The design features four functional snap-button pockets:
- two pockets on the chest
- and two at waist level
Adjustable cuffs, waist drawstrings, shoulder straps
Velcro-adjustable cuffs and waist drawstrings ensure a better fit and enhanced defense against the cold. Shoulder straps accentuate the military aesthetic.
Zipper covered by a storm flap
The primary zipper is shielded by a snap-button storm flap, which boosts defense against wind and cold. Additionally, the flap minimizes the chance of the zipper jamming due to dirt, moisture, or snow.

Truly an iconic design – this collar is very masculine. It looks really cool if your build is not skinny. On the downside, the pocket placement is morally outdated. For fighters in the 1960s, this might have been fine, but now it’s just inconvenient. There are also no side pockets at the bottom, so it’s impossible to walk around with your hands in the pockets in this jacket. The hood is basically nominal. The lining is quite short: both in the neck area and at the waist.

Height 187. Weight 110 kg. I ordered XXXL. It turned out to be very big. At the NP post office, I was told that I could only look at it, not try it on. There's only 1-2 cm difference between XXL and XXXL in the size chart. Now I'm hesitating on which size to choose. Maybe XL? 😊 I call the seller's phone - an answering machine replies, ugh! I arranged a return, now I'm waiting. The quality is not bad. Some threads stick out, but that's easy to fix. The seams are double, strong, and even. The fabric feels soft to the touch. You can't feel the synthetics. The collar is large. Overall, I liked the quality. But choosing the right size is a problem. The sizing chart is not accurate, doesn't match the real sizes. The price is good. Delivery is fast and free for orders from 2999 UAH. I'm waiting for the refund and maybe I’ll place another order.

I don't know about others, but this jacket is very comfortable for me. I use it for everyday needs (defending the country). Dirt is easy to clean, it's comfortable, warm, and there is nothing unnecessary.
-
The jacket is carefully sewn. It has a very warm lining, which can be easily detached. It worked well in temperatures from +6 to -7 degrees Celsius (without the lining), and it was enough to wear a fleece or a regular shirt underneath to feel very warm.

I want to share my review to help potential buyers choose the right size. I am 177 cm tall and weigh 118 kg, I chose XXXL, it fits perfectly. The jacket is awesome, I definitely recommend it.

The quality of workmanship falls short compared to American contract versions, but at this price, it’s hard to expect more. With the minor exceptions of the material used and the zipper being sewn on the opposite side, it’s a fairly faithful replica of the original. There are some inaccuracies in the description: the tag indicates 100% polyester, and the lining—just like the original—is fastened with buttons, not a zipper.
-
The jacket is very well made. It has a very warm, easily detachable lining. It worked well at temperatures from +6 to -7 degrees Celsius (without the extra liner) – just a sweatshirt or shirt underneath was enough to keep me really warm. Deserved 5 stars.

Well-made, looks quite elegant, you can feel like Borewicz :) In very cold temperatures, almost reaching -20 degrees, it doesn't perform as well anymore, but overall I'm satisfied. A nice feature is the hood that can be hidden. Unfortunately, the snap buttons come undone easily on their own, and for that I deduct one star.

I bought a black M65 jacket and I am very satisfied with it. I usually wear size L, but after reading the opinions, I decided to go for size M, and it turned out to be a bullseye – it fits perfectly. I am 170 cm tall and weigh 78 kg.

I've known this jacket for many years, and I'm always glad to get such good quality for this price. With this jacket, I don't have the problem of actually using it, which often happens with much more expensive and higher-quality pieces of clothing, where potential stains or damage significantly reduce the value... The jacket is made of robust material, is well-constructed, and the fit is very good for me. I use it both as a work and everyday jacket from autumn into the cooler part of spring. The removable lining is great, as it really keeps you very warm and feels comfortable to wear. The four pockets offer plenty of storage space and are also very practical to use with the snap closures. The waist adjustment allows for an optimal fit, especially when the lining is removed. The color selection is very versatile and further underlines its positive outdoor character. It's unfortunate that there's no inner pocket. All in all, I'm very satisfied with the jacket and can gladly recommend it. The customer service and delivery by the military shop are professional and absolutely customer-oriented! Thank you very much.

I am very satisfied with the jacket – it is comfortable and keeps me warm, but I give it 4 stars because the zipper near the hood causes problems – it fastens properly, but later it comes undone in the middle by itself. Despite everything, I recommend it.
-
I came looking for a jacket that would keep me warm but at the same time could wear daily really happy I got this one the size is perfect and the materials are high quality
-
Great jacket, solid quality, suitable both for everyday use and for outdoor trips or the shooting range. Thanks to the detachable, insulated layer, it can be worn all year round.

The jacket is made of durable material and works great thanks to the removable lining. I think it's fantastic if you choose the right size! It's suitable for wearing all year round. Thanks to the sturdy fastening and warm lining, you can use it even on freezing days. I really like its style and functionality, so I wholeheartedly recommend this military jacket to you as well.
